The company is a small start up looking to expand and grow and become a key player on the high street.

A donation is made from every sale to help local charities around the world. I also believe retail stores should be used for more then just selling.
The collection is made up collaboratively with other social enterprises and also other female founders here in the UK. As a female founder, whose faced many challenges I believe its for all of us to support one another. Hence why the Pop ups will be made up of a selection of my products but also brands run by other small business owners will also be sold.

I am from Pakistani and want to bring components of what makes retail special in Pakistan such as the complimentary offer of green tea when customer enter, which is customary in Pakistan.
